22 Week Belly Photos

Here are more belly photos! Baby Girl is getting bigger and bigger! I'm currently 23 weeks so next week I'll be 6 months pregnant! It has gone by sooo fast. This whole pregnancy thing has been pretty easy so far. I guess talk to me after the delivery though...



21 Week Belly Photos

I really really did not feel good when we took these belly photos so I am looking really rough. It was all that I could do to even smile at the time.

Student Teaching Photos


Me and Tiffany comparing bellies. What a difference!! Haha

These 2 pics are from Wacky Wednesday when the Grammar School (Elem) celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday! This is the Kindergarten team above. (Tiffany the other student teacher, me, Mrs. Taylor, and Mrs. Cameron, both Kinder teachers)


Grammar School teachers above. Again, Wacky Wednesday, not the dress code. I had really wacky socks on up to my knees but they're not pictured here.


These 2 pics were from our Cowboy Day when we were studying Cowboys and Texas. We roped, or tried to rope.. I wasn't very successful, cooked peach cobbler on a fire, made bandanas, spurs, & chaps!

My First Baby Shower :)

So I finished my student teaching in Kindergarten at Brazos Christian School this past Thursday! I LOVED it there! My mentor teacher, kindergarten team, principal, students, and whole school were amazingly sweet people! I was sad to leave, but also welcomed to break.

My mentor teacher Mrs. Taylor, pictured below with me, and her students gave me my first baby shower ever. We had Shipley's donuts and orange juice and the kids and their parents gave me baby gifts. It was so nice and such a surprise!! :)


Mrs. Taylor and I


The other student teacher, Tiffany

Look at all the gifts the students gave me!



I have so many adorable pictures of the eight kids in that class but I won't post them since I don't have their parents' permission. I figured this one was ok because you can't see most of their faces anyway.


I'm not sure what that look on my face is for.. but it was a cute Old Navy onesie.


Also, the students and Mrs. Taylor made me 2 very special gifts. One is the apron above with all the kids' names and hand prints on it. I loved it! Then they made my a book called "Teaching Advice for Mrs. Hamilton". They each wrote a page on what they think makes a good teacher. It's precious.

Here's one page:

A Good Teacher

A teacher teaches the kids. A teacher is kind. A teacher loves the kids. A teacher teaches about God. I love you, Mikey

It's a............

GIRL!!!!!!!!

Wednesday, April 8th we went in for my 20 week appointment. We were so excited and a little nervous. It was a big moment finding out the sex of our first baby! Before we went in Justin asked what my final prediction was and I said a boy and he said a girl. I really had no idea but I'd heard so many things like... since I didn't get very sick early in pregnancy it's probably a boy and since I'm carrying a little low it's probably a boy... so I just went with that. Long story short the ultrasound tech said that it was a little girl! She said she never says 100 but she'll say she's 98% sure it's a girl! :) Justin was right! We didn't care if it was a boy or girl but I will say that we are both very very happy with a girl! Here are some pictures of our precious baby:


She is laying with her head to the right side of the picture and she has her arms up and hands by her ears.



Look how big her belly is!




Above is a picture of the bottom of her feet.


This is the gender shot above. Look at it as if she's sitting on a chair and you're looking at it from underneath. Her butt is to the right side and there's nothing between the legs.


Here's a pic of her waving HI! See her fingers by her head?





Again her hands are up by her head. Isn't she adorable?? :)

Background Difficulties...

So I've been wanting to change my background for weeks now. I went to thecutestblogontheblock.com and found a precious background and it won't let me change it! I go through all the steps, paste it into the content page, and then it just stays the same...... Any suggestions?? I need help!!

Hot Mommas!!

Friday, April 3rd was Justin's 25th Birthday!
A whole quarter of a century old!
We and some friends went to dinner and then hung at afterwards at Fast Eddie's.
It was a lot of fun and I'm so glad our friends drove in - it was so good to see everyone!!


Here's a pic of me and Brenna. I hope I look as good as you, Brenna, 6 months after having the baby!!!


This is me and Katie :)
She is 7 1/2 months pregnant with a little girl and I am almost 5 months pregnant with a baby of some gender.


(: BFF :)


Here are some more friends- Allison and Richard- very confused..


Here's Ron at dinner without Brenna :(
Baby Caitlyn was very sleepy so Brenna took her home for bedtime.


And here's Katie and Chad! I forgot to take a picture of me and the birthday boy!

19 Weeks!

Here are some pics of my belly at 19 weeks!
Only 3 more days until I find out if the baby is a girl or a boy!
We're so excited and can't wait until Wednesday..
Next time I post photos we will know if that big bump is a girly bump or a boyish bump!
